Well its not 'that' bad is it? You get to mix magic now solo meaning Ice/Lightning Ownage everywhere. Oh and theres the release of the real 'Advanced Magic' (FB,TH,IS are just intermediate). Since I'm not a mage I'm probably biased, I dont know :S

Magic always has been and still will be the most devastating form of attack given ample time to prepare. Most of it's damage is overkill and it always hits a huge AoE.
With these changes normal bolts will get more powerful as well which will make magic less expensive since you won't necessarily need wands and mass mp. Advance magic may take longer to get stronger but as stated it's not like it needed all that damage to do it's job well anyway.

I think a nerf is natural. What with the release of actual Advanced Magic, they had to reduce the damage on the Intermediate Magics to hype up Advance Magic more. Otherwise, with Intermediate Magic keeping up with and occasionally exceeding other styles of combat, Advanced Magic would be way too over powered, even if 90% of the people in the world will ever get it.

I'm not surprised by this nerf for the same reasons Arsik posted.

Ample amount of time? Thunder at Rank 1 Gives you Ample amount of time (With the stun) And Ice Spear is just spam =/

DevCat really needs to balance the cost/effectiveness of Mabinogi classes. First off, mana shield is insanely OP. It breaks -the game- honestly.

Mana shield is only OP on non-mages. It makes perfect sense in a class based game but it's far too effective in Mabinogi's hybrid world.
